Reading newspapers in Littlehampton Library

In the 1960s I went to school in Littlehampton. At that time Littlehampton Library had a reading room with a quiet studious atmosphere and lots of wood. It felt like a privilege to be allowed in. There were racks with newspapers each hung on a rod. One took out the selected newspaper and carried it to a table to read. I thought that it was great to be able to read any paper one wanted to. Reading through those available I was able to decide which one I enjoyed. My parents took the Daily Mail, so that was out of course. The Times was boring for a teenager, with things like stock prices, birth, marriage and death notices and court circulars. (The latter were dull announcements about the Royal Family). The Daily Telegraph was too right wing. So I settled on The Guardian and have read it ever since, but now on my phone! Thank you West Sussex Library Service and Littlehampton Library.
